Looks like i may have to purchase a MTB and start posting here as not much interest so far in the road section!!

I would have thought Dr S would have been in with a good shout with his Klunker. Unless ayone else on here is using 2" wide steel rims..?

Last time I weighed this it came in at about 35 pounds including the guards, rack and stupidly heavy puncture resistant tyres. The rack bag was empty when weighed too.

It is of course a low end Saracen and think it's a from 1993-95.

With a bit of 200GS I'm sure I can throw together something much heavier though.

I have a complete 200GS groupset for this if anyone wants it, say £100

It'll help you win

I bet there's a house brick in those panniers.

As for Warwickshire everybody knows Warwick District is where it's all happening.

I could put these:

on the Alaska and it would definitely significantly increase the weight, but like I said, I use it at least 6 days a week at the moment, so I'm not going to!

I have a £32 89 MBK that serves as junior's runabout, shown here in its motherland this summer and also as my pub/club bike about MCR - as used last night, returning me safely home at 5.45am... Utterly bomb proof, strangely reliable and, as yet, unattractive to bicycle thieves!

i had an activator 2...poor thing.
got it for christmas as a kid and could barely lift it.


anyway. i have a raleigh max "air ride". dont know where the air came from as its about 16kg. 35lbs ish. its my winter bike so gets used when it gets sloppy.
